RSA Throttling menu
Using the RSA Throttling menu (cfg/smc/unistim/keys/adv/throttle), you can
configure RSA throttling parameters for new connections that need to
generate an RSA handshake. Current connections, or those that are employed
by session caching, are not affected by RSA throttling.
The initial communication with the IP phone, in which the master key is
exchanged with the SMC, is encryption and resource intensive. The SMC
limits the number of times an individual client can set up a secure UNIStim
session in a given period of time. RSA throttling is a way to prevent possible
denial-of-service attacks, which can cause the SMC to spend an excessive
amount of time servicing new connections from a single malicious host.
Table 81 identifies and describes the RSA Throttling menu commands.
Description
Enables or disables throttling. RSA throttling is enabled by default.
